**Discovery** is a process by which [[ddsf:public:guidebook:06_append:glossary:d:data_distribution_service_dds]] determines system entities. The mechanism by which this
is done differs between [[ddsf:public:guidebook:06_append:01_family_of_standards:01_core:ddsi_rtps| DDSI]] and OpenSplice Native RT Networking. Either
[[ddsf:public:guidebook:06_append:glossary:n:networking_service|networking service]] has its own set of dependencies for this process to 
work correctly.
